Willow: Something evil-crashed to earth in this. Then it broke out and slithered away to do badness. Giles: Well, in all fairness, we don't really know about the "slithered" part. Anya: No, no, I'm sure it frisked about like a fluffy lamb.

Spike's Bitches 30: Going on Thirteen  

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I'm guessing that if she needs to rent out the cats' room, the whole cat nutritionist career isn't going so well for her.

"Alphabet City".

Below 14th and Houston, the island is wide enough for extra avenues east of 1st, so they have letters instead of numbers. (Below Houston, there's no grid.)

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Huh.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Thanks, Tom. I love the satellite maps.

I want to live in New York. Silly MiL. Why couldn't the job offer had been there?

Most of Alphabet City is a long hike to any subway stop, and traditionally was one of the skankiest parts of Manhattan, although that has changed a lot in the last decade.

Because the publishing industry here has run out of money.

(Not that I'm bitter about it...it's not like E wants to get paid...)

Art Crawl!!!

You know 17 cats in a single family home -- of say 3 bedrooms would be ALOT of cats.

17 cats in an apartment?

No, I can't imagine.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

It's also where "Rent" was set.

ION, argh. My rice cooker seems to be broken, and I don't have enough pots to make rice and the rest of dinner at once.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Deb's got something like 13 in her & Nic's flat, but she's also one of the best housekeepers I've ever met. There's taking care of a lot of animals, and then there's living like one. I think this lady (if the ad's real), is in the second category.
